How winners are chosen
We know that when there’s a real prize on the line, you want to be certain the draw is fair. So here’s exactly how every winner on Planet of Dreams is selected — in plain English, with nothing hidden.
Every draw closes before a winner is picked
Each draw has a published closing time. The moment it closes, entries are locked — no one can add, remove, or change an entry after that point. Only once the draw is closed does winner selection begin.
The winner is chosen completely at random
When a draw closes, our system selects one winning entry at random from every entry in that draw. Every single entry has exactly the same chance of being drawn as every other — no entry is weighted, favoured, or treated differently in any way.
If you hold more entries in a draw, your overall chance of winning is higher — but only because you hold a larger share of the total entries, never because any one of your entries is worth more than someone else’s.
No human picks the winner
This is the part that matters most: nobody on our team chooses, influences, or reviews the winner. Selection is fully automated and happens the instant a draw closes. There’s no manual step where a result could be nudged, overridden, or changed. Our staff find out who won at the same moment the result is recorded — just like you do.
We use bank-grade randomness
To pick the winner, we use a cryptographically secure random number generator — the same class of randomness trusted to protect banking and encryption systems. It produces a uniform, unbiased result, which means two things:
- Every entry is genuinely equally likely to win.
- The result cannot be predicted or worked out in advance — by you, by us, or by anyone else.
Is a digital draw really as fair as physical lottery balls?
At least as fair — and arguably fairer. A physical machine can, in theory, be tampered with: weighted balls, faulty equipment, or human handling. Our draw has no physical parts to interfere with. It’s a uniform, unbiased random selection where every entry has an identical chance, carried out automatically at a fixed time.
Can the same person win twice?
Yes — and this is a sign the system is working correctly, not a fault. Because each draw is independent and random, a past winner has exactly the same chance as anyone else holding the same number of entries. Truly random results will occasionally throw up repeat or even back-to-back winners — in the same way a fairly tossed coin can land heads twice in a row. Deliberately excluding previous winners would actually make our draws less fair, not more.
